Using the Remote Cable RM-CB1
(Optional)
When you are shooting and need a smooth steady vibration free release of the shutter,
you can mount the camera on a tripod and use the optional RM-CB1 remote cable.
Using this remote cable prevents camera shake caused by pressing the shutter button
with your finger. The remote cable is connected to the remote cable jack on the camera.
You can also half-press the shutter button and lock the exposure and then release the
shutter button with the remote cable, or execute a slow shutter release in the bulb mode.
1
Set the mode dial to P, A, S, or M.
2
Attach the camera securely to a
tripod and compose the picture in
the viewfinder.
3
Remove the cap from the remote
cable jack on the camera, and then
insert the jack of the remote cable
into the camera.
Keep the cap in a safe place where you
can find it. The remote cable is equipped
with a small screw so you can attach the
cap to the cable.
4
If you are not going to use the
viewfinder to take the picture, pull
down the eyepiece shutter lever to
prevent light entering the
viewfinder from behind the camera.
Light entering the viewfinder from behind
the camera could wash out the picture with
white light.
